Exploring Anarkali Bazaar: A Journey to Honor Amrita Pritam
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 вер 2024
- Baalwala, a lover of poetry and literature, recently visited Anarkali Bazaar in Lahore to reminisce about the great poets, writers, and storytellers who have contributed to the rich literary tradition of Punjab. As he traveled through the bustling bazaar, he immersed himself in the vibrant culture of the city and paid tribute to one of the greatest Punjabi poets, Amrita Pritam. Walking through the same streets that inspired Pritam's writing, Baalwala felt a deep connection to the past and was filled with a sense of reverence for the many artists who have made Lahore such a hub of creativity and expression. For him, this trip was a powerful reminder of the enduring power of literature to inspire and unite people across time and space.
Amrita Pritam (1919-2005) was a prominent Punjabi writer, poet, and novelist. She was the first woman to receive the Sahitya Akademi Award for her magnum opus, Ajj Aakhaan Waris Shah Nu (Today I Invoke Waris Shah), which is a poem about the Partition of India in 1947.
Pritam's literary works often dealt with themes of gender, identity, and the human condition. She was also a strong advocate for women's rights and was recognized as a feminist icon in India. Some of her other notable works include Pinjar (The Skeleton), Raseedi Ticket (Revenue Stamp), and Aapka Bunty (Yours Bunty).

ishke kijiye na talluke humse tujhse Milan husrut hee sahi
The picture in the vedio is not Amrita. Whose painting is this
We are waiting❤❤
Ap na lahore sa piyar krwa diya ha ...❤❤
umeed hain meri request ke song --------------------------------------------------------------op nayya
Never ever amrita has been described so beautifully. Ur knowledge of Punjabi and Urdu is so inspiring . Lahore is the capital of Punjabi poetry
Beshak Alhamdolila True
What a feeling to see the Saint Francis high school, was a student there in 1964. Zeeshan, let me tell you that you have a writer, director and Ann amazing actor in you. Appreciate your great work. Just want to say "well done and keep it up". God bless you.
i study in Saint Francis 1981 to 1986 and today i seen again after 37 year later it was amazing to see but feeling pain to see in this condition
God bless you
1964 a violent year of my life. I was 18 at that time.
Heartening to find that there are still people like you who are the flag bearer of old secular Lahore.On watching your documentaries my heart takes me to the poem The Gracian urn by John Keats, :-O little town thy streets for ever will remain silent be.and not a single soul to tell how though art desolate .Excellent attempt keep it up.God bless you.
Keats is a great poet
Lahore was never secular but the other way around. The major difference is that the people of different religions lived peacefully in pre-colonial India and practiced their faiths to the fullest. At the same time art also flourished in various forms. When Britishers came, they ruined everything. They did the same thing here in North America too before USA independence in 1776.
You mean "syncretic." Secular means practices not rooted in religion
Good job thanks
My student life poem An odd to Gracian un.
Beautiful video ! My parents were from Pindi n Lahore . Moved to Ludhiana in 47 . Always told us great stories of life in Pakistan ! I feel so connected to my brothers sisters in Pakistan. We are all from Punjab , common Punjab . Some live in India some in Pakistan. Love these videos sir . About Lahore n all it’s history!
Agar aap k parents chahain to main un ko videk call par pindi dikha sakta hu
@@Shablammo waah 🙌✨
Really impressed with your research on such unforgettable poets. Looking forward to more of historical icons
How do you write kriar in punjabi?
Very nice documentary on Amrita Pritam. She was a true Punjabi gem from Lahore. The partition broke her heart. Her love for Punjab and Punjabi is second to none. The citizens of Lahore was erect a memorial to her and remember her as one of their great daughters.
Nice sound, nice lecture, nice video ,nice style ,nice city Lahore, love from Taj city AGRA
You are very nice also. This is how neighbours should complement each other.
Thanks bro from USA 🇺🇸
That's best comm from USA 🇺🇸.
@@muhammadnaeem1436 I live in USA too.
I have not seen any body even in india , someone has poetically explained Amrita pritam so beautifully. Great tribute to one and only Amrita ji , daughter of Lahore❤
Praji❤.. aap such main purani yaado to DIL main tabdeel karte ho.❤ God bless you
Yes he does speak from the heart.
What a heartwarming video! Iam an old fashioned person. Your narration often moves me to tears.
God bless.
Same here heart touching videos
Same. Haha glad I’m not the only one who tears up 😢. Sometimes I wish I could go back in time. 😊
My ancestors lived on Dhani Ram Street , Anarkali Bazaar. My father was born there. We still have pictures of our haveli there. My grandmother used to tell us stories of pre partition days in Anarkali Bazaar.
The name of the road is still Dhani Ram. Its on the backside of Anarkali. At one end there is a big gate of Mayo Hospital.
Thank you for the reply. A friend of mine visited Lahore and shot the vedeo of our Haveli and Crockery show Room on Dhani Ram Street. My 90 year old father was in tears. Anyways I must compliment you for the passionate work you are doing. Be blessed with all the positive vibes of the universe. Khush raho hasdey raho tey wasdey raho.❤
@@kamrankhaliq yes, it is still called Dhani Ram.,I left law college hostel some 55 years ago, and I thought it was on the backside of law college hostel. I used to drink milk with jaleebis deep inside-a habit which I relinquished and cannot be sustained in USA.
@@malikahmad8170 Ahh what a memory. I have also long old memories with this road.
By the way my father was also studying in university Law college in those days . He completed his LLb in 1967. He also used to live in few hostels but not sure which one was that. Once he pointed a building that was behind MAO college where he lived for sometime .
@@kamrankhaliq you are right, this law college hostel is behind MAO college and we had little bit of frictions with MAO students, we thought they are too retrogressive, learning Urdu, Farsi, and Arabic. I graduated in 1972 from law college, now practice law in USA. Few years ago, I took my elder son to show him law school and hostel but could not go any farther because it was dilapidated, needed lots of repairs and also a bad incident happened that day in Lahore. God bless Pakistan and all of you.
Great way presented veerji ! Respect and love from Hyderabad India ! 🇮🇳
Spellbound.... Tears in eyes.
Direct from soul...
Love from Himachal, India.
Great work Sir..
I don’t know why I started watching this video among thousands while wondering on UA-cam but every second passed I kept indulging in its magic...the subject,presentation,style ,script ,videos and the content never let me switch over...
Well done sir for your effort and tributes to great Amrita sing.
Speechless. I can’t say anything. What a story what an inspiration ❤
Love from 🇧🇩
Watched this episode 5 times in a row - truely u r amazing person on this planet - mesmerised by ur language and voice - 🇮🇳
Very well narrated. Amrata Singh's poetry is from the Heart and for the Heart.
Sir, you are not the one but the only one. God bless you whichever God you believe in.
Thanks
No doubt Baalvala is doing good work but present day Pakistan have new youth which believes in love and harmony, unlike their elders. Changes are there in society. Awareness and education.
I am from Amritsar, India!
Saw your videos! Lahore is same as amritsar! Felt like walking through the streets of amritsar again
Love it, would like to see more❤️❤️
Changa kam zaari rakho please
History relived. Hats off to you sir. We have common culture, comon language & common looks. People of both countries have great love & respect for each other. Despite boundaries being drawn, we are attached to each other through our shared history. Please continue doing good work to bring people of both countries closer. My father was from Rawalpindi Jain family. He used to tell us stories of Bhawra mohalla & bazar which still exist there. Please cover these places in future to relive memories of our parents who belonged to Rawalpindi. Thanks
A "like" for your good comment from Rawalpindi.
Bless you All 🌳💚🌴
I was born near Bawra bazar in Rawalpindi. Great streets. Raja bazar, Arya mohallah. A birth place of Balraj Sahni was born near our street where we lived once. After leaving the sea as a Marine Engineer I live in Lahore now.
Just awesome. I dont know who is Amrita neither know punjabi much. But this baalwala bhai has took me on a spiritual journey. I can just say. Sacha ishq jismoon ka nai rohoon ka milap hota hay and hopeful for Amrita gee ❤
Kabhie kabhi mere dil me khayal aata he...kya khoob prem kahani thi sahir ludhianvi aur amrita pritam ki,touches my heart ❤.thank you for sharing so much on amarta yes she will be amarta in millions of her poetry lovers life.will wait for the vlogs on the great music directors and playback singers of bengal.greetings from Kenya 🇰🇪
Started watching your videos recently. Heartening to see such a combination of knowledge, poetry, ability to understand people and above all to see all humanity as one religion
I am from Lahore and this story brought tears in my eyes. I am sad why Amrita have to suffer so much pain. Why Punjab suffered so much. How did we forget great heroes like Amrita.
I have CRAVED for a BaalWala video on Amrita jee. Thank you so much. SOO EXCITED 😭
I am a great fan of your work. I was born in lahore moved to London. You have shown me that lahore which I haven't seen when I was there. Thank you for another great vlog.
Dil ko chu lene wali description thi. Lahore India ke punjabion ke Dilon se nikal nahi sakta. Hamara culture ek hi hai. Past ek hi hai. Chalo Government se request karein ki ek kar do Hindustan aur Pakistan ko.
You just brought tears to my eyes.And it is tribute to Amrita and you !!!!
Salute to you for your efforts and hardwork.Keep up your good work.
Thanks
Amazing video, mixture of great quotes, incredible commentary, heart touching voice, smooth background music, love, story of partition and migrants, passion, unique style of storytelling. Andaaz e bayaan aur..👍👍👍
What can I say about this, great job bhaijaan, Allah Hafiz 💐🙏🙏
Thanks for presenting a great tribute to Amrita Pretam. Love from Toronto.
A tremendous tribute to Amrta Pretam in such a fascinating voice which is perfect for her status. ❤
You are absolutely one of the best journalist who has described Amrita and her life beautifully. Thank you, Sir.
Nice to see you back baalwala Bhai . you are doing great 👍👍👍❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Bro , this description awakens the poignant feeling of a lost great asset of Punjab 💔
Wow .. Beautiful narration. Enjoyed it. I'm a voracious reader. I read few books of Amrita Pritam. For me she is a rebellion.
Sanzita Lama ! Are you from Sikkim ?
It is overwhelming to congratulate you for your efforts in creating such an amazing UA-cam channel. From your narration to reaching out to every destination to explore it completely is amazing. The level of information that you are giving is beyond viewers' expectations. Now, where there are so many food vloggers, travel vloggers and some doing podcasts etc Where you're providing such useful information making people knowledgeable by all means. A person like me gets spellbound with each sentence you deliver. You're Urdu proficiency is next level which melts people's hearts and takes them to their unorganized cluster of memories....
All the best for the upcoming videos. May your videos would be a huge source of spreading our cultural significance to the world by all means.
Regards
Thanks
No words about your documentary video and about Amerta pretam really your effort is fantastic really I like her poetry she was a great personality of Punjab.
Never heard such beautiful Urdu from anyone . Our region is always striving hard to prove superiorty of religion , but never superiorty of humans . First attempt by you
This is very heart touching video. My God rest her peace. Amrita Pritam was great Punjab poet/writer.
What a wonderful character was Amirita Pritam,no doubt she was a unforgettable personality from United Punjab,Thanks very much to conduct this documentary on her
Zeeshan Sab not in a habit of leaving comments but your choice of words conceptualisation, subject knowledge, presentation and voice is absolutely mesmerising. loved watching this video ….. more power to your elbow… lots of love and respect
Many many thanks

Hor ki dassa veere twanu sada punja t punja ha yaara maja hi aa janda ha ha.....🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤
Beautiful Zeeshan. Your Urdu and Punjabi is so engrossing. Amrita just came alive in your narration. God bless 🙏
What a wonderful tribute to legendary poetess and a true woman of substance 🙏🙏 thanks from an Indian fan 🎉🎉
Kudos brother! what a gifted documentary and tribute To Amrita. Being a tamil speaker who lived and grew up with Punjabis, Urdu speaking and hindustani speakers, mostly families of refugees in New Delhi, I was so touched by your sensitive narration. I went over your video twice. Do provide the places covered in the description box please. Keep up the good work, and bless you!
I have recently come to know that Tamil is one of the oldest languages of the subcontinent.

Thank you very much for this excellent documentary shedding ample light on the great writer of Lahore
This video is so touching ! Thank you so much for this special episode ! Your unbiased approach to our unique past is always appreciated by us. Can't we connect and give a new perspective to our comm ancestry! Tahedil se aapka shukria is episode ke liye.🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Kaplna ! The objective of Baalwala is the same .
@@BaalWala kindly make a video or documentary on Dimomd Markeet I am so eaģer to watch it and now all these Fankar are living in which areß once I tried to visit but there were only Band Bajas shop and some special figures were roaming there Khuja Saras plz make a full programe on this Badshahi Mosque s back streets thanks a lot
@@faizasana1275 yes I’d love to know more, it would be fascinating. Apparently they were the king’s daughters. A lot of history behind it. But a video might be considered inappropriate and controversial for him.
@@Nozarks1 ok dear but I want to know about them I will search on Googall thanks for guiding me yes may be it will make problem for Haal Wala
@@faizasana1275 from what I’ve heard, they were the king’s illegitimate children. Once the king died, the new king wouldn’t support them, so they had to choose other means for survival. The king usually had the most beautiful woman, so their descendants (the women of hira mandi) were beautiful also. They were cultured and refined because they knew the ways of the courts.

My late father was from Lahore and knew Amrita Pritam. Heard a lot about her from him. Would love to visit our ancestral house somewhere in Model Town, but politics between our nations will not allow this to happen.... Please carry on giving us these insights of Lahore...

Awsome presentation ❤❤
Sheer poetry in everything that you say. It was mesmerising to hear about Amrita Puritan from you. And you are so right. Our thoughts can't be divided. We are one and will always be one. Geographical borders can't divide the soul.
Will look forward to hearing about all the other poets and writers you mentioned.
